Geek/Fanboy Rate.... for fun

Tanukitsune · 09-27-2003, 07:23 AM

Intolerable! I just did a geek test here and I'm only 26% geeky? No way!
Maybe its because the US definition of a geek involves being a math/computer genius... And since when does having a social life makes you "lose points"?
Here is my idea, lets do like in those "Rate me, am I hot?" silly web pages...
But what you do is post your geekiness / fanboyishness and the rest can post theirs and rate the others....
Here I go:
-I watch Cartoon Network and Fox Kids...
-I have nearly every book by Terry Pratchett and Douglas Addams (this should "count more" because no one knows them here...)
-I have nearly ever manga published in Spain...
-I am a fan of Godzilla, Troma and Bruce Campbell, yet again unkown here...
-I have biographies of Bruce Campbell and Jackie Chan
-I love bad horror movies, anime, Monty Phython...
-I quote Monty Python! NEE! NEE!
-I read tons of webcomics a day.
-I listen to themes from 80's toons when I want to hear music
-I have beanie babies and action figures (not toys!)...

-And the most irrefutible evidence of my geekiness:
I have over 1200 games! :eek: BOOYAH!
So maybe the last time I asked a beautifull girl out she said yes, and the next time, and the next... but she likes Jackie Chan and LOTR and she wants to watch Freddy Vs Jason and the Thornberry / Rugrats crossover movie....
Here is a question you have to make yourself if you want to know if you are a geek/fanboy:
Have you ever talked about something and found out nobody knew what the hell you are saying? (Who is Guybrush Treepwood?)
Ok I'll end this never ending rant with my self rating: I make Bernard look normal...
I guess making posts like thing makes me even geekier!

Your are 10% Geek

I knew I only had a suggestion of geekiness. I mean, for god's sakes, I have Bachelor of Fine Arts degree and was a Fashion Designer for 10 years! True geeks do not do that!

Oh, and I have rythm, which is something you can never, ever download, baby.

Maybe they should add this question?
-Are you part of a staff that has a site dedicated to adventure games?

I wish there was a fanboy test out there... I'd get 100%

Henke · 09-27-2003, 07:48 AM

I win! I am 27% Geek.

Sorry, hon

! I'm uncategorizable. Seriously, you can't label me a fashion whore 'cause I spend my money on computer games, but you can't label me a geek because of my background.

Tom_K · 09-27-2003, 07:51 AM

Your are 14% Geek

I'm 4% more than Trep!~

I think it was the couch/futon thing.

Royal Fool · 09-27-2003, 07:55 AM

Most of those questions seemed very un-geeky... but nonetheless, my score was 52% Geek. (And no, I don't do webcams and I don't do Linux/UNIX/Other)

And of course Wolverine would take Spider-Man!

Wow, you win.

I am beginning to wonder exactly what in that test that makes you get the most geekpoints. I didn't understand half of the questions. The only things I answered that I guess could get me some points is that I have read Lord Of The Rings more then once and I currently don't have a girlfriend. But other then that I have no idea.

Moosferatu · 09-27-2003, 08:08 AM

I'm dying to know what Twif got.

Tanukitsune · 09-27-2003, 08:13 AM

I found another test here were I got 46%!
At here I got 74%!
At here I got 150??? Oh wait its my geek IQ...
How can I get so different results!?!
But I like the geek IQ test, it seemed geekier...

Phil25 · 09-27-2003, 08:15 AM

35% geek!

You probably work in computers, or a history deptartment at a college. You never really fit in with the "normal" crowd. But you have friends, and this is a good thing.

BTW this font alone should be proof of my geekdom!

Henke · 09-27-2003, 08:18 AM

Phil, you got the same response as me. Should we start a club? Lets call it "The computer/history outsiders with friends" or something similair.

Tanukitsune · 09-27-2003, 08:26 AM

I just noticed nobody is doing what I asked for originally...
Nobody is saying "I speak fluent Klingon!" or stuff like that... I told you about my geekness...
If you just want to take the test maybe you should try the other tests so we can find out which is the most decent one...
I think the Geek IQ is the best one

Geek with rhythm and proud of it, bitch. (That's an affectionate 'bitch.')

Screw you.

I am 51% Geek

Nerd, Freak, Geek, Dweeb. Sound familiar? That's okay, cause I will be the richest person at my 15th year high school reunion. If a "con" isn't happening that weekend.

Ha.

Call me 'Pelvis Presley'.

Great. Another Bill Gates up and coming.

Royal Fool · 09-27-2003, 10:13 AM

Methinks twif and me should start our own club, "Geeks rated 50% or higher". Oooh, such a clever name. *nerdy laughter*

The Poisoned Pawn · 09-27-2003, 10:23 AM

I'm 19% geek. I personally think I'm more, but...

Kingzjester · 09-27-2003, 10:34 AM

Hm...

Also:

Quote:

You are 44% geek. You are a geek liaison, which means you go both ways. You can hang out with normal people or you can hang out with geeks which means you often have geeks as friends and/or have a job where you have to mediate between geeks and normal people. This is an important role and one of which you should be proud. In fact, you can make a good deal of money as a translator.

And:

Quote:

105
(this puts you in the 85.17 percentile.)

Your GQ is about average - your coolness offsets your geekiness.
